For anyone, like me, that has recently moved from the elementary world to the intermediate universe (yes it feels like that sort of jump) there is a lot of good advice above.  It doesnt take that long to get used to the intermediate lessons and the faster pace and different structure. I am still lost in space but gradually finding my way.

Fortune cookies used to be more common in Australia, less so now but you will still find them.

Finally I know how to order Pork Dumplings and BBQ pork buns.  I can dine happily now.

timely lesson.  Just managed to pick up tickets to see the US v Turkey game in Macau at the end of July.  Now I can yell out fan4gui1, fan4gui1 like everyone else (I may also have to learn some Cantonese and Portugese to fit right in but this is a good start).

Was it just the name of Seoul that was changed or did they also change Han2guo2?  

Seoul is an wonderful city.  Plastic surgery is cheaper in Thailand though (so I have heard).

Also the matching exercise is a little easy today.  You might want to mix the pairs up a bit.

Love the lesson but can someone tell me what a candied Hawthorne is (from the expansion). To me a Hawthorne is an Aussie Rules team from Melbourne (or a place in Melbourne or Brisbane).

Given that you were reading Yang Jie's diary how did Yang Jie listen in on Wang Wei's mobile phone conversation with Li Yan? Did she have some high tech scanning equipment? Is she stalking him? There is a lot more scandal to be uncovered in this sordid tale!
